YOUNG COOKS
At Young Cooks, youth aged 6-14 learn to cook meals for themselves and their families, while building local food system knowledge, developing a positive relationship to healthy food, and learning to read and create recipes, in a safe, supported environment.
Classes include healthy twists on favorite recipes and easy to prepare, wholesome and nutritious appetizers, snacks, entrees, drinks and desserts. Students eat what they’ve prepared and take food home to share with their families.
YOUTH HOT MEAL
Youth Hot Meal Program, is a lunch program that provides opportunities for students to have access to nutritious food at school. The program helps students attend school well nourished and ready to learn, and helps schools develop a healthy concession, cafeteria or lunch program, shifting away from high salt and high sugar processed options.
